Caution for the optical or coaxial audio output.

When connecting an amplifier (with an optical/coaxial digital input connector) which does not contain the Dolby Digital decoder or DTS decoder, be sure to select:

Dolby Digital = PCM

DTS = Off

Do not use ... the Digital Audio Out sockets to connect to an equipment other than a Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG 2 receiver or a suitable decoder. Such a connection can create a high level of noise that may be harmful to your ears and could damage headphones or speakers. Older digital equipment, some of which are not fully compliant with IEC 958, are likely to cause this problem.If you encounter this problem, use the Digital audio out menu (see above) to convert the Dolby Digital audio bitstream output to linear PCM. The same should be applied with the so-called Optical or Coaxial REC.OUT socket of Dolby Digital decoders, when they are connected to this DVD player. Since REC.OUT is a 1:1 copy of the decoder's input, no other equipment should be connected there.

Dynamic Compression

This function, designed for late-night viewing without disturbing neighbours, reduces the soundtrack’s dynamic range.

This function only works with Dolby Digital DVD soundtracks.

Off: Normal audio range is selected.

On: Select this setting to enjoy listening to the full dynamic range of the audio track even with a low volume, when you want to listen to a movie’s dialogue without having to turn the volume up (Factory setting).

2x playback Audio (for DVDs)

Make your selection, “On” or “Off”.

• No sound will be heard on discs with LPCM or DTS during 2x Playback.
